What is x when 35 divided by x equals 11?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 35 and the quotient 11?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 35 ÷ 11 = 3.1818181818182

To prove this, let's compute 35 divided by 3.1818181818182: 35 3.1818181818182 = 11

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 35 divided by x gives a result of 11, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

35 x = 11

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 35 x x = 11 x
  2. 35 x x is equivalent to x x × 35 , which simplifies to 1 × 35 (or just 35 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 35 = 11 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 11: 35 11 = 11 x 11
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 3.1818181818182 = x (or x = 3.1818181818182 )

So, if the dividend is 35 and the quotient is 11, the divisor is 3.1818181818182.
